Trump ran as the punk candidate against a stasis voters found enervating
Evidence
Trump was less the glam than the punk candidate, possessing the same combustible, fissile mixture of the reactionary and theā¦ that characterised so many punk acts. Punkās politicalā¦ boredomā¦ mid-Seventies stasis was so enervating that any change would be better. Well, after Brexit and Trump, we can say with certainty: boring dystopia is over. Weāre in a whole other kind of dystopia now. ā Mark Fisher (edited by Darren Ambrose), K-Punk, 2031
